Electronic tools take the guess work out of managing SAFETY and ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE


Ten years ago, using paper documents for safety and environmental reporting was the norm. Today, the majority of organizations are now utilizing electronic tools such as the Safety Incident Management System (SIMS™) from ENDURE to manage their safety and environmental recordkeeping and compliance. Here are a few reasons to jump on the electronic bandwagon.


All businesses need to adapt to industry change. You could save your organization significant money and headaches down the road by proactively switching to automated reporting, especially as more agencies, including the EPA, begin requiring electronic reporting for new regulations and compliance reports.

Anything that saves your organization a few hours a week is worth it. Electronic reporting makes it faster and easier for safety and environmental managers to manage the daily demands of compliance reports, safety audits, emissions monitoring and other requirements by eliminating piles of paper documents and replacing them with convenient tools for automated reporting and document management.

You need safety information and documentation that’s continually updated and available. With tools like SIMS™, all data is stored electronically, so you can quickly pull up records and figure out how to respond in any given situation, whether it’s an employee filing a safety claim or an OSHA citation. SIMS™ also stores critical reports and documents to produce annual compliance documents such as OSHA 300 logs.

Regulatory guidelines are not a one size fits all. Regulatory guidelines have nuanced applications and different reporting requirements for various industries. Many electronic reporting tools allow you to customize your safety and environmental reporting systems to meet the requirements of your specific business or industry.
